The younger pupils of Maple class (age 6-8) have been playing games of snakes & ladders with one another on boards they have drawn themselves. They worked together with number sequencing, made their own counters and enjoy playing together whenever they can.
Sequoia class (age 8-10) have begun their study of Norse Mythology, where they have been learning about how the dwarves are able to craft silken wolf-binding ribbons out of ‘impossible’ things, such as the breath of a fish and a bird’s spittle.
Here are some of the impossible things that Sequoia pupils have come up with:
The end of the sky, the thorns of a riddle, the white of the clouds, the kindness of people, the breath of a fire, the middle of the ocean, the lightness of the darkness, the heart of a sword, the end of time, the sound of a tree growing.
